2598.0. "bsubmit died with bunch of errors (possible space problem)" by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Tue Oct 15 1996 21:54

Subj: 	bsubmit died with bunch of errors (possible space problem)

Hello,

	I was using a script to put a new set of tests in to the
PTBQA pool.  The area is completely clean, so no files or directories
to conflict with.  The "bcreate" process seem to end successfully, 
but the "bsubmit -auto_out -all" failed with a bunch of errors (I
found out recently that the PTBQA pool is having space problems).
Anyways, I then (naively) thought to restart the process, so I blew
away the sandbox tree (which I assume was the bcreate files) and
started the script again.  Obviously, it was NOT happy with this
process.  NONE of the files (as far as I can tell) ever made it into
the PTBQA pool.

	I would prefer just to tell ODE to forget the already 
bcreate files and restart the process (I would like to slightly
modify the directory structure anyways).

	If this process is clearly marked out in the ODEman or other
document, just give me a pointer to the appropriate document and 
preferably chapter.


Thanks mucho much,

Jeff

Unfortunately, you can't fully undo a bcreate by yourself.  The best thing
to do is rerun, but find a way to ignore any bcreate failures that occur
because a file already exists.  The placeholder file bcreate puts in your
sandbox is not needed.  It's unclear from your description whether you
checked in your files with "bci" before attempting to "bsubmit".  I
think that's a necessary step.

Jeff, as Jim commented it's necessary that you do a bci (check-in)
before you do a bsubmit.  You didn't indicate if this was done,
or exactly what the error(s) was/were.
If not all the files were bci'd first, bsubmit would not continue.

It would be useful to actually see any error messages you got.

It kind of makes me nervous that you say:
     > I would like to slightly modify the directory structure anyways

If you mail the full path we can clear the pending submit and completely
remove all the rcs files which were created, so you can start over.
